Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 cup chicken broth (optional)
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels, then season both sides with salt and ground black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the pork chops in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove the chops and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter has melted, stir in the minced garlic and rosemary sprigs, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the garlic-rosemary butter over them. Continue cooking for 4-5 minutes, turning the chops occasionally, until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
If desired, add chicken broth and lemon juice to the skillet in the last minute of cooking to create a light pan sauce.
Remove the skillet from heat, discard the rosemary sprigs, and let the pork chops rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
